About this breach

In around 2011, the now defunct RuneScape Boards forum (also known as RSBoards) suffered a data breach that was later redistributed as part of a larger corpus of data. The vBulletin-based service exposed 223k unique email addresses along with usernames, IP addresses and salted MD5 password hashes.
